Got some airbrushing done,mixture of Tamiya Dark Yellow and Desert Yellow first and the same mixture with some white added over the first layer.
Lost some of the pre-shade effect,but not thinking of doing it again.
Indoors the color of the gun seems too tan looking for my liking,but outdoors it may look ok.{was thinking of a yellow enamel filter}
This may not my cleanest build...duh...but it will have to do as it is.
Going for the 'ambush mode',some of you might know what this is...and some will NOT like it.
Next stop camo colors,detail painting and the usual weathering.
Thanks for dropping by!

CAMO!
I used Tamiya XF-64 Red Brown,for the brown color,I always start with the brown camo color,don't ask why,it's just my way of doing things.
Then a mix of TAM XF-26 Deep Green with TAM XF-21 Sky for the green.
The paint is thinned with TAM Lacquer thinner with some TAM X-22 Clear in the mixture.
I went for a disrupted camo scheme,think it looks ok by my standards.
Ofcourse I just had to break off the back rest from the gunners seat,a photo-etch part....jeez that never happened in this build.[sarcasme]
But I will fix it!
The PAK gun is now drying from the TAM X-35 Semi Gloss Clear coat,running out of Future, this is a fine alternative.
The gun will get a light coat of Flat Clear on the lower parts close to the ground,will tell you next time why...
See you soon,Folks!
